SANOFI PH Holds Event on Power To Love Yourself

Friday, July 23, 2021



The importance of self care has something Filipinos have less grasp of because we often sacrifice ourselves for family or friends. It's something that we do because of culture, our being family-centric and the pressures of society to become successful so you can provide for your loved ones. Question is, if you don't take care of yourselves, how can you take care of others?

In a recent event of Sanofi PH, they invited speakers and executives to talk about how we can use our energy and time to also do self love. How do you do it? Simple things, taking a long hot bath, taking a vacation, eating the best dish there is, or spending time pampering yourself. It's not only healthy for the body, but even the mind if you do that. During these days wherein times are blurred between work and time for family (because we're practically all working at home), we need to make sure that we have that ME time. It's a time to recharge before you do work, or maybe take time to rest right after that.

Self care is long term, you do it so you don't implode. It can be as simple as talking to someone, making meaningful connections, to make sure you have a healthy mental well being. We have to make sure that we have ourselves taken cared of so we won't fall off our horses when the actual rodeo starts. It was nice to hear insights from ladies who handle it well during the IG live session. Thank you Sanofi for inviting us this afternoon!

Puregold Channel's GVBoys Spews Romance This Saturday

Thursday, July 22, 2021

 

When I attended Puregold Channel's press conference a few days ago, they introduced a new show called GVBoys. After their premiere about a week ago, social media has been abuzz about how fun this digital series is who's concept was done by Puregold Price Club Inc. Times are hard and to make things lighter, the show aims to provide free entertainment to lessen the burden and stress during the pandemic. This is written by Sherwin Buenavida and Joaquin Acosta, and directed by Don Cuaresma (who's done a lot of TV series). You can liken this to the 80's hit show Palibhasa Lalake but with newer, fresher take on it. 

I've watched the first few episodes and had so much to say about the personalities of Jawo, Zeus and Daks (Jerome Ponce, Dave Bornea and Niko Natividad). The guys had to figure out a way to get money for their landlord Aling Perly (played by Carmi Martin) because they're being pressured to pay up her debt. Loisa (Wilma Doesnt) isn't going to accept any excuses so they went all out with ways to earn and pay for it, some of which was too hot to handle because of the naughty ways Jawo, Zeus and Daks thought of doing it. Now, it's been viewed around 1 Million times on Facebook, Youtube and Puregold's various social channels.


Wouldn't you like to be with them boys?

If you haven't seen it yet, they're coming out with a third installment this July 24 (which is a Saturday) at 7PM. For sure, they're going to have so much fun as previews show some budding romance with different characters so you've got to see it. Make sure you catch the GVBoys on Puregold Channel's YouTube and Facebook accounts, subscribe and like their pages including @puregold_ph accounts on IG and Twitter. It's all there!

Klea Pineda Opens Up on Why She's Not Joining Pageants YET

Wednesday, July 21, 2021



Klea Pineda just renewed her contract with GMA and GMA Artist Center. With the Never Say Goodbye star doing this, what does she expect to do with GMA this year? For starters, there's a lot on the pipeline and aside from that, she'll be doing projects with other stars from the same network. We talked to her this afternoon after she signed with GMA and Artist Center executives.

Klea says "I don't really have an expectation, whatever the management chooses for me, what character I play, I'm willing to do it. I believe they won't give me something that wouldn't help with my career. I don't want to be stuck in one love team, I want to be with different leading men so I can grow as an actor. I want to work with my co starstruck batch like Arra, Jay, Ayra, Prince, it's been so long since I have worked with them, more so in a regular show. I wish we could do that. I chose to stay in GMA because they gave me a break, they gave me the opportunity, they opened doors to fulfill my dreams. I came from auditions, I lined up, I really started from scratch and they believe in me. In the future, I hope to have a family of my own but still work here as a Kapuso. Harlene and I was just hanging out, we recorded it and posted online and you can see how we bonded so fast like we have already worked previously. Max, Lauren, Ms. Snooky, we all worked for the first time and we bonded over that during the locked in taping. It's not the end of the pairing with Jeric, I am happy to be paired with others so I can learn from other artists, I don't want to be stucked in a loveteam and Jeric knows that I want to be with other leading men in this industry because you will learn a lot from other artists too. Jeric and I bonded over regional shows, when we promote things, we are together, we have coffee in the morning, he's a very good gentleman, but our friendship won't end there. We still send each other messages, we support each other, talk when we have shows and he's very supportive. Our friendship is very matured. I wish for a primetime show, but it will happen in time. I'll feel fulfilled when I hear my show will be next after 24 oras, and with Bea Alonzo of course."
 
Here's the rest of the interview on video, enjoy!
 
 


Klea will be working with Jak Roberto, Lauren Young and Snooky Serna on Never Say Goodbye under the GMA Entertainment Group so stay tuned for that!
